"These had made many locals abandon their homes and run to the state capital, Owerri, and other places for safety." Who in Imo state that has not run away from his native LGA to settle in Owerri area? Unless helpless old or poor person. Okorocha as governor started the legacy as he built all in the state capital nearly everything he considered development. Gov Hope Uzodinma took the legacy to the sky limits. It's like both swore that humans will not live elsewhere in Imo state outside the state capital area. |
Peace will return to Imo state if the soldiers of Nigeria will allow voters of Imo State next November to choose who will govern the state from January 2024. The year 2011 was the last time voters in Imo state were allowed to choose their political representatives, including governor, Senators, federal and state assembly Reps. |
Imo, a state without anymore mmekwatarism, no solution to crisis, since Rochas Okorocha sold APGA mandate to APC and brought APC into Imo state in 2013. In the Senatorial district of Orlu shared by Rochas Okorocha and Hope Uzodinma, it has been murdering of youths, arrested development, shrinking of the existing city, depopulation, underdevelopment, tales of woe, till today. Then President Buhari visited Gov Uzodimma in Owerri more than any other state gov in Nigeria. Gov Uzodinma visited Buhari in Aso Rock more than any other governor in Nigeria. No solution. Instead, Imo state has receded into the state capital, Owerri. |
Bala was in his room enjoying himself with his booze and cigarette. The woman knocked on Bala's door and entered the room. Who witnessed Bala giving her alcohol or having sex with her? Nobody. She could be on blackmailing Bala over job and position rivalry with her fiancee, Peter. |
Streetdoctor:There is no case of rape there. Bala did not inject alcohol forcefully into her. She even explained to Bala that she has no good head to stand alcohol. In other words, she knew what could come up if she got drunk. Therefore, she was willing for the sex with Bala. And why would she walk into Bala's room after cleaning her fiancee's room? |
nlfpmod:Not Bala's fault. Peter's fiancee is damn stupeeed. She might have been responsible for luring Bala into sex with her. |
Umar Bala. Why? But the name sounds Muslim. I thought they don't joke, or even shake hands, with women who are not theirs; and reason why their women cover heads. |
Typing:Wow. Chino has come into the thread with his mudslinging. End of the thread. |
Pityoobi:But apart from Lagos; all the rest of your region is more village than the SE. Since Wole Soyinka used the term "village mourners" when Chinua Achebe was being buried and Soyinka was critisized for not going for Achebe's funeral, you lot from the SW have foolishly used village to describe the SE. |
Gov Otti. Don't make Aba suffer more. Tallahasse is the capital of the US state of Florida. Bigger and more beautiful cities like Jacksonville, Miami, Tampa etc exist in Florida. The governor of the state of Florida can never lavish the funds of the state on Tallahasse. Don't join the hype in Imo state; the hype of "governors building Owerri to Dubai standard before attention is paid to other places in Imo State." |
There is no constitutional provisions that a state capital must be provided infrastructures more than any other places in the same state. In fact, neglecting other places in a state but provide more infrastructures in the the state capital, is contravention to the constitution of Nigeria. Aba suffered drastically due to inept governors contravening the constitution regarding governance in a state. Imo state has been reduced to one city - Owerri only- because of same contravention of the constitution of Nigeria regarding provision of development infrastructures in a state. |
Every town develops at its own pace. It's only in Igbo land where inept state governors use almost all the development funds of a state in building infrastructures only in the state capital to have a beautiful state capital while the rest of the state is abandoned to decay. Please don't copy the governors of Imo state. Orlu and Okigwe had near similar levels of urbanisation with Owerri in 1976 when Imo state was created. But inept governors and their politicians who know only state capital have reduced Orlu and Okigwe to rot. |
Cyberterror:Foolishness is when you spill that bullcrap above and tell yourself that you have written something reasonable. Who initiated the APC alliance that fed Niger 🇳🇪 Republic what is lacking in parts of Nigeria? Bola Tinubu. |
herkeem:You formed the APC alliance whose government fed neighbour countries with what Nigerians lacked. Did you not know the mindset of the Buharis when you formed the APC alliance? Crying over spilled milk. |
Kano state, don't go the way of Imo state by demolishing or rubbishing the development projects of preceding governors. Such acts have made Imo state become only state in the southeast with only the state capital as livable area, as every new governor starts afresh with demolishing to rebuild in Owerri state capital. Rest of the cities of the state recede to pre civil war status. |
EmekaA125:Owerri-Awka Road was completely asphalted with drainages on both sides of the road except a bridge not built on Orashi River. The road from Ekwulobia to Orlu never came into use because of the bridge not built when Buhari military government took over. Gov Soludo is most likely to know the story of the road. But Indomie generation of people will not know about the road. |
Vboot1:The type of education these flyover governors had, despite the level explains their acts in office. As well as the governors, a lot of citizens don't know that flyovers are a great nuisance; and that no good city planner can think of building flyover on any junction unless there is absolutely no other method to control traffic on that junction. Ohakim and Rochas were chased about by some Imo people into building unnecessary flyovers. They asked Ohakim and Rochas to "build us a state capital like Dubai, future governors shall look into development in Orlu and Okigwe." Since 2007, except the uncompleted urban renewal projects started by Okorocha govt in some towns outside Owerri, it has been governors demolishing and rebuilding and demolishing to rebuild in Owerri till today. |
Gov Soludo, to make this Ekwulobia new city more connected, please complete the failed Ekwulobia-Orlu section of Awka-Orlu-Owerri Road. The road was completely asphalted with drainages on both sides but a bridge across the Urashi River after Ekwulobia was not built before Buhari military government took over in 1983. IMSG has dualized and lighted up the Owerri-Awka road from Owerri to Orlu. |
But Ekwulobia is not state capital. This is the way Imo people will be wondering over this news. In Imo state nothing can be built outside Owerri state capital. Imo population is bursting in Owerri. Rest of the state is emptying into Owerri. |
Ahmed0336:Who no tire for 🇺🇦 Ukraine and their president matters? Even America 🇺🇸 don tire for Ukraine wahala. Ukraine president is leading his country to Golgotha. |
Comedian President. What of his useless desire for EU and NATO membership which made him subject his country and people to near total destruction? |
What have you put on ground as palliatives? Not Meeting after meeting while the population is burning out. Meeting aimed to create the false impression of being active. |
OMBIIGA:Oyibo colonial masters built the water storage tanks in nearly every city in Nigeria then to supply treated running water to black Africans and Oyibo people in Nigeria. Oyibo left, the tankers went dry. Nigeria's politicians have not had sense or empathy to make treated running water available to citizens. A similar water tanker in my Orlu hometown stopped getting water over 40 years ago. We have been having governors in Imo state since states were created. Crooked governors. |
AntiTerrorist:It's like the 2019 INEC Server brouhaha. Mahmood Yakubu should have been sacked after the brouhaha. In 2023, Mahmood did his worse: after spending billions of Naira on electronic transmission of vote results, Mahmood's INEC switched off the system on seeing that the APC was not going to win through electronic transmission of vote results. INEC manually manufacturers votes for APC. Inec declared APC winner. |
Temporary president and temporary secretary. |
Broveens42:Comparing sweet oranges with grape, is like comparing former govs of Imo state with Hope Uzodinma. 1) You don't seem to recognise the number of Imo youths murdered under Uzodinma government; never happened in any other administration in Imo state. 2) no other governor of Imo state until Hope Uzodinma closed down modern development in the other urban and rural centres in Imo state, but pretending to be governor of state capital. |

Broveens42:Private developers build streets, extend gas and water pipelines, extend electricity to their private estates. Imo State Government is supposed to build such urban and rural roads that are in Orlu, Okigwe and Owerri as well as in some other rural centres in Imo state. But in Imo state, government builds even the private roads in only Owerri that private estate developers are supposed to build, as well as builds the urban roads in only Owerri federal Constituency. Citizens of Owerri federal Constituency enjoy their saved money and can holiday all year round. But the people living in Orlu, and probably other urban centres in Imo state, have no more internal roads to move on; or they build and repair their own internal roads. This foul play in Imo state started since 2007. |
Ofodirinwa:The same manner you built the road pass your house in America. The same way you built the road pass your house in Awomamma or wherever. |
Ofodirinwa:I have lived in America and in Europe. The public roads, public water supply projects, public schools, for example, in America have government contributions to their establishment; but may be managed by private companies. If the dim witted people in Imo state want to continue to have state governors who put the federal allocations of the 27 LGAs, and the state, into building Owerri; because the dim witted people don't want any government development in Orlu (and of course, in other towns in Imo state outside Owerri); people of Imo State will choke in Owerri before long. The trouble in Owerri is already there. Visit the ghettos of concrete buildings in the once rural areas near Owerri, some don't even have access roads. The ghettos emerged because governors of Imo state didn't want, don't want, to provide urban renewal in Orlu and Okigwe zones. They built and build only in Owerri. Dim witted people in Imo state clap for the governors. |
On Abuja. The two HEADINGS in Nigeria's Constitution: One heading on ADMINISTRSTION OF THE STATES; The other heading on PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. The heading on ADMINISTRSTION says Abuja shall be administered like any other state. The heading on Presidential election says a presidential candidate must win 25% of votes in Abuja before declared winner. Judge like Ekwo wants to plunge Nigeria 🇳🇬 into a catastrophe from the way he conducts his court. |
"The lawyer aimed to plunge the country into unprecedented constitutional anarchy capable of causing bloodshed and genocide." --- Inyang Ekwo. So because Peter Obi told his supporters to stay away from protests and not go violent; Justice Inyang Ekwo thought that violence is an exclusive preserve of Tinubu's supporters; and refused to turn up on 28th May to rule for justice's sake? What a judge, Justice Ekwo. |
